Snorkeling in Dahab is one of the most amazing undersea experiences you can have. The Red Sea really is a beautiful as people say. The coral is amazingly colorful, the fish are abundant, and there's a wide variety of organisms you won't find anywhere else. The best way to experience the Red Sea is to have your own mask and snorkel. Then make sure your hotel is right on the water (almost all of them are) and you can head to the water in the early morning and at dusk everyday. These are the best times to see the fish out and about feeding. When the sun is low is easily the best time to see the most happening around the coral, so grab your mask and head into the water.

Dahab is a great place to do a short camel trek. You can do anything from an hours ride to a multiday trek. The scenery is amazing where the beautiful blue water meets the red desert. It's like no other place I've ever been. Keep in mind, camels are quite uncomfortable when you decide on a duration for your trip.

Some of the hotels offer wonderful all you can eat buffets on specific nights of the week. Wander down the street and you'll see them advertised on signs. They vary in quality, but most aren't bad, and some are quite good. Most include delicious barbeque and a live band for entertainment. The seafood is fresh and delicious. Make a note of what night they are and plan ahead to get a great deal on some delicious food.
